Congratulations. Given that no work has gone into it in the past year,
that is no mean feat.

DUMMYNET and IPFW should not have any dependence on the MD code.
However, it is entirely possible that the virtual networking driver is
doing something wrong.

I'm cc'ing -net in the hope that someone might know what is preventing
it from working.
